If you are a kicker and see the shadows of failure in everything that is proposed to help the town, for heaven's sake go into some secluded canyon and kick your own shadow on the clay bank, and give the men who are working to build up the town a chance. One long-faced, hollow eyed, whining, caping, chronic kicker can do more to keep a way business and capital from a town than all the drouths, short crops, chinch bugs, cy clones and blizzards combined. The president calls attention to the growing deficiency in the postal sen ice. He fails to men tion a leading cause the print ing of envelopes by the govern ment absolutely free, whicn is unfair and wholly unjustifiable, compelling the people at large to pay the bills of a select few. The government has no more right to furnish envelopes at cost and print them free than it has to furnish us print paper at cost and do our press work free, Will the publishers ever rise up and stop the outrage? . Portland takes fourth place a mong cities of the United States in wheat exports for the 11 months of the current year end ing with November. This is ac cording to the report of the Sec retary of the Treasury on bread stuffs exported from this count ry. Puget Sound comes next after Portland. New York is first, . Philadelphia second and Dulirth third. Last year Port land ranked second in the coun try in wheat shipments. The figures just compiled of wheat exports do not include large shipments of wheat from Port land to California. This ton nage is very heavy each year. No State in the union is exper iencing a greater transition per iod at the present time than Ore gonl It has ever been promi nent as a commonwealth since its admission into the union on February 14, 1859. Prior to that its bustling activity, first as a frontier community and later a territory rich in resources invit ing settlement, kept it much in the public eye. No more inter esting pages in the history of American pioneer days are to be found than those which deal with the Oregon country. It was on August 14, 1848, that that Oregon was organized as a territory and by successive acts of congress passed on March 2, 1853, March 3, 1863, May 26, 1863. and July 25, 1868, Wash ington, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming were seperated in or der named. Oregon still remains, however, the largest of the Pacific North west states and its vast expanse of 96,030 square miles, or 61,459, 200 acres, offers no end of "Op portunity for commercial, indus trial and agricultural develop ment, over and above that al- j ready realized. The state ex tends from east to west a dis tance of 360 mile while 290 mi. lie between its northern and southern borders. Three moun tain ranges traverse the state from north to south, the Coast range, which parallels the Paci fic coast line, and of which the altitude is 4000 feet; the Cas cades, 100, 150 miles inland, that rise to a height of 6000 to 12.000 feet and divide the state into the two great eastern and west em districts, and the Blue moun tains near the eastern border, which are from 3000 to 10,000 in height. The 34 countries of the state harbor a population of 800,000 people and that "number is being rapidly increased each year by the influx of homeseekers from the eastern states attracted by the opportunities offiered in field and forest I he several cities and towns of the state have hit upon a plan of orginized boost ing conducive to the more rapid development of Oregon. The mountain ranges seperate east era from western Oregon. The 13 counties included in the north western division border for the most part on the Columbia and Willamette rivers. The famous Willamette valley, which is 150 miles long and 60 miles wide and includes 5,000,000 acres, is dotted with thnving cities and towns which ore accessible to the pro ductive farms for which the val ley is noted. A mild climate and a fertile soil are largely respons ible for the agricultural achieve ments of the valley which also has the advantage of transporta tion facilities. Southern Oregon includes the five counties of Douglas, Coos, Curry, Josephine and Jackson, which are quite separated from the Willamette valley. The forests and mineral deposits of the mountains and the fertile soil in the valleys combine to of f er great opportunity. eastern uregon comprises an immense district east of the Cas cades some 64,000 square miles in extent, and including approx imately two thirds of the entire area of the state. Here is local ed the grert range land famous as a stockraising district. Here is to be found a vast area of land ultimately to become the great est grain erowing section of the country, once the dual charm of irrigation and transportation is worked. A number of reclama tion projects already completed have shown the marvelous re sults of modern irrigation meth ods followed by modern and sci entific farming, and more than justify the rapid progress of the work which will pave the way from the transformation of many an arid waste into a prosperous territory rich in the production of fruit and grain. To date the government rec lamation service has sent approx imately $3,000,000 in Oregon in the development of two irriga tion projects involving more than 200,000 acres of land. While neither of these projects are finished to date, their influence has given an impetus to a gener al movement by way of the arti ficial application of water to the soil. Vast sums have been ex pended by individual enterprise in the substitution oi orchard field and garden for the sage brush desert. The great central area of the state has too long been isolated from the outside world because of lack of satisfactory transpor tation facilities. The spell is now broken and the year's end of 1909 sees the frantic race of the rival Hill and Harriman lines well under way. Once this vast district is tapped by railroada. the development of its latent possibilities will be but a matter of the shortest possible time, and the benefits will go to swell the wealth and happiness of the Bea'vferBtate. " ' While the first century of Ore gon's life as a state has been marked by great progress, the frrtfriTio rf rorent voara V1R.0. been such as to prompt the uni versal prediction that the devel elopment of the next 50 yean will be little short of marvelous once reasonable advantage is ta ken of the remarkable natural resources that invite exploita tion. The opportunities are here.. A progressive citizenship is mfw wide awake to the fact Scientific knowledge is teaching the best methods of improving the land, of tilling the soil, of working the mine, of handling the forest and of harnessing the stream. The inevitable conclu sion is a Greater Oregon.
